On This Week’s Episode:
Whereas the seniors danced on the 2001 promenade in Hoisington, Kan., a city of about 3,000, a twister hit the city and destroyed a couple of third of it. When the scholars emerged from the dance, they found what had occurred, and within the weeks that adopted, they tried to make sense of why the twister hit the place it did.
On this episode, This American Life tells that story, and extra, from promenade evening.
This can be a rerun of an episode that first aired in June 2001.
